A secreted factor NimrodB4 promotes the elimination of apoptotic corpses by phagocytes in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Florent François Masson, Samuel Rommelaere, Elodie Julie Virginie Ramond, Bianca Marie Petrignani

Programmed cell death plays a fundamental role in development and tissue homeostasis. Professional and non-professional phagocytes achieve the proper recognition, uptake, and degradation of apoptotic cells, a process called efferocytosis. Failure in effero ...

Image- and Fluorescence-Based Test Shows Oxidant-Dependent Damages in Red Blood Cells and Enables Screening of Potential Protective Molecules

Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

An increase of oxygen saturation within blood bags and metabolic dysregulation occur during storage of red blood cells (RBCs). It leads to the gradual exhaustion of RBC antioxidant protective system and, consequently, to a deleterious state of oxidative st ...

Adult Drosophila Lack Hematopoiesis but Rely on a Blood Cell Reservoir at the Respiratory Epithelia to Relay Infection Signals to Surrounding Tissues

Bruno Lemaitre, Elodie Julie Virginie Ramond

The use of adult Drosophila melanogaster as a model for hematopoiesis or organismal immunity has been debated. Addressing this question, we identify an extensive reservoir of blood cells (hemocytes) at the respiratory epithelia (tracheal air sacs) of the t ...

Lysozyme-Induced Transcriptional Regulation of TNF-alpha Pathway Genes in Cells of the Monocyte Lineage

Paul Joseph Dyson, Romain Hamelin, Florence Armand, Isabelle Mireille Claude Schepens

Lysozyme is one of the most important anti-bacterial effectors in the innate immune system of animals. Besides its direct antibacterial enzymatic activity, lysozyme displays other biological properties, pointing toward a significant anti-inflammatory effec ...

Quantification of stored red blood cell fluctuations by time-lapse holographic cell imaging

Pierre Marquet, Gerardo Turcatti, Benjamin Rappaz, Michel Prudent, Manon Sandra Bardyn

We propose methods to quantitatively calculate the fluctuation rate of red blood cells with nanometric axial and millisecond temporal sensitivity at the single-cell level by using time-lapse holographic cell imaging. For this quantitative analysis, cell me ...

Functional Characterization of Nucleoid Associated Proteins Acting as Global Transcription Factors in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Nina Theres Odermatt

The fatal lung disease tuberculosis is caused by the airborne Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a versatile pathogen adapted to rapidly changing environments. Instead of being eradicated by phagocytic cells of its human host, bacilli tune macrophages to support ...

Quantitative Single-Cell Analysis of Host-Pathogen Interactions

Matthieu Jean-Hubert Delincé

During infection, microbial pathogens encounter phagocytic cells of the host innate immune system, such as macrophages and neutrophils. These encounters typically lead to uptake and killing of the bacteria by the host cell or, conversely, parasitization of ...

Ablation of the Tumor Suppressor Histidine Triad Nucleotide Binding Protein 1 is Protective Against Hepatic Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

The identification of cellular pathways capable of limiting ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remains a frontier in medicine, and its clinical relevance is urgent. Histidine triad nucleotide binding protein 1 (HINT1) is a tumor suppressor that influences a ...

Emerging paradigms and questions on pro-angiogenic bone marrow-derived myelomonocytic cells

Cancer-related inflammation has emerged in recent years as a major event contributing to tumor angiogenesis, tumor progression and metastasis formation. Bone marrow-derived and inflammatory cells promote tumor angiogenesis by providing endothelial progenit ...

Differential Expression of NLRP3 among Hematopoietic Cells

Manuel Raphael Zenger

Although the importance of the NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome in health and disease is well appreciated, a precise characterization of NLRP3 expression is yet undetermined. To this purpose, we generated a knock-in ...

Recognition and classification of red blood cells using digital holographic microscopy and data clustering with discriminant analysis

Pierre Marquet, Daniel Boss

We propose to apply statistical clustering algorithms on a three-dimensional profile of red blood cells (RBCs) obtained through digital holographic microscopy (DHM). We show that two classes of RBCs stored for 14 and 38 days can be effectively classified. ...

In vivo labelling of resting monocytes in the reticuloendothelial system with fluorescent iron oxide nanoparticles prior to injury reveals that they are mobilized to infarcted myocardium

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe

To evaluate the feasibility of loading resting monocytes/macrophages by intravenous (i.v.) injection of fluorescent iron oxide nanoparticles prior to injury and tracking of these cells in the very same animal to myocardial infarction (MI) by magnetic reson ...

Tissue macrophages suppress viral replication and prevent severe immunopathology in an interferon-I-dependent manner in mice

Nicola Harris

The innate immune response plays an essential role in the prevention of early viral dissemination. We used the lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus model system to analyze the role of tissue macrophages/Kupffer cells in this process. Our findings demonstrate ...

Contrasting persistence strategies in Salmonella and Mycobacterium

John McKinney, Anna De Graff Tischler

Long-term survival of persistent bacterial pathogens in mammalian hosts critically depends on their ability to avoid elimination by innate and adaptive immune responses. The persistent human pathogens that cause typhoid fever and tuberculosis exemplify alt ...

Angiopoietin-2 regulates gene expression in TIE2-expressing monocytes and augments their inherent proangiogenic functions

Michele De Palma

TIE2-expressing monocytes/macrophages (TEM) are a highly proangiogenic subset of myeloid cells in tumors. Here, we show that circulating human TEMs are already preprogrammed in the circulation to be more angiogenic and express higher levels of such proangi ...

A distinguishing gene signature shared by tumor-infiltrating Tie2-expressing monocytes, blood "resident" monocytes, and embryonic macrophages suggests common functions and developmental relationships

Michele De Palma, Daniela Biziato

We previously showed that Tie2-expressing monocytes (TEMs) have nonredundant proangiogenic activity in tumors. Here, we compared the gene expression profile of tumor-infiltrating TEMs with that of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), spleen-derived Gr1(+)C ...

Analysis of mice with conditional ferritin H deletion

Iron is a transitional metal required by virtually all organisms as a dietary micromineral, indispensable for cellular survival and proliferation. The management of iron absorption and distribution in the organism and inside the cell must be tightly regula ...

Functionalization of polysulfide nanoparticles and their performance as circulating carriers

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Annemie Rehor

We here present an evaluation of the carrier performance of nanoparticles that are biofunctional, i.e. derivatized to provide a controlled biological activity, and environmentally responsive, since they respond to the presence of oxidants. In particular, w ...

Identification of proangiogenic TIE2-expressing monocytes (TEMs) in human peripheral blood and cancer

Michele De Palma

Tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells, including tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), have been implicated in tumor progression. We recently described a lineage of mouse monocytes characterized by expression of the Tie2 angiopoietin receptor and required for th ...
